Photo Shoot

I’m starting my new venture… photography. I had fun practicing with different light settings.
Kenny helped me build a backdrop with PVC and black bed sheets. It turned out nice. I got some clip on work lights, made a couple of deflectors. One is a standing foam poster board and the other is coat hangers shaped into a rectangle and covered with a white garbage bag stretched tight. I was able to get one lightstand with a white umbrella and bought some daylight bulbs. I’m excited about this adventure and am enjoying experimenting with lighting and camera settings.

I start my Spring semester classes tomorrow. My first photography class! Woo hoo! 🙂 This semester I am taking PhotoShop 2, In Design, Typography and Drawing 1. I have one more pre-req class to get out of the way too; “Internet technologies and Concepts”. I hope to get as many classes as I possibly can during the time that I have been given to devote to my education. It’s not easy, but it is a blessing! Getting that important certificate and diploma will help me get the job I need.

Here are the portraits I shot today:
